Rumsfeld's War Coalition. Hmmmm, let's see. There's Great Britian--but very few of the British people want this war; there's Spain--but very few of the Spanish people want this war; there's Italy--but very few of the Italian people want this war. And if this war moves forward those political careers will likely be in jeapardy.

I suppose solid in Rummy's camp are the Eastern European countries attempting cozy on the US. Yup, there in!

And the Brits have got some troops and equipment and I think the Aussies sent 450 soldiers for the back bench and the Czech Republic has donated a mobile checmial decontamination truck.

Anybody else got any skinny on this coalition? Have I missed anything?

PS: Remember the early war-hooping days where the Fox news heads so confidently would say, "OK, we've got Turkey to north and the Saudies to the South," as if attenuating this would be an easy "roll."
